We can't help but think that last night's episode of Gossip Girl, "The Princesses and the Frog," was inspired (just a little?) by a real-life wedding that went down a few days ago in London-town. To start it off, Blair Waldorf (Leighton Meester) fell head over heels for Prince Louie from France, setting herself on the fast track to princess-dom. But Serena van der Woodsen (Blake Lively) tried to sabotage Blair's fairy-tale dreams by telling Prince Louie's mother about her possible daughter-in-law's many indiscretions as chronicled by Gossip Girl's text messages over the years. Still, Blair managed to get an invite (and rocked a fierce Jenny Packham frock) to a ball hosted by the French royal family. Everything went according to plan, until a tipsy Chuck Bass (Ed Westwick) showed up to cause a scene, nearly ruining Blair's chances with the prince.

Meanwhile, Charlie Rhodes (Kaylee Defer) and Dan Humphrey (Penn Badgley) became friendly; so did Charlie and Vanessa Abrams (Jessica Szohr). Vanessa vowed to help Charlie snag Dan. Hmmmm... sounds sketchy. Yep! It was sketchy. To show off her GF material, Charlie volunteered to make pizza for Dan's dad and prospective biz partners (band members), but Vanessa advised her against it, saying that she should do a fancy catered dinner with caviar instead. Or, so we thought it was Vanessa's idea. Charlie actually made up the whole damsel-in-distress situation, putting Vanessa on the hot seat. Not even on the show for a full season, and Charlie's already a bona fide backstabber.

Finally, Nate Archibald (Chace Crawford) found himself torn between his relationship with Raina Thorpe (Tika Sumpter), who is dead set on looking for her biological mother, and his loyalty to Chuck who found out that Raina's mom and Chuck's dad were having an affair before she was allegedly killed in a building fire. DRAAAAAAMA.
